Mountain High Outfitters

Meet Christopher Groom

"The Mountain High Experience"

Mountain High Outfitters began with the premise of getting people active, outdoors, and living their passion.  Twelve years later, the vision remains the same.  Mountain High Outfitters realizes that fit, fashion, and function are what the consumer desires, so I intend to stay on the cutting edge of style and technology, tell a compelling store, and to create a unique shopping experience.

By offering a premium selection of outdoor apparel, footwear and lifestyle clothing for the entire family, as well as having the most extensive gear selection in Birmingham, Mountain High Outfitters has created a well rounded destination. The North Face, Patagonia, Kava and Costa del Mar brands seem to be the craze in the south, however, look out for really slick brands, such as Montbell, Arc'teryx, Luminox (watches) and Spy (sunglasses). We are building a lifestyle, whether you are headed out tailgating, going to the beach, heading to the slopes, backpacking or hitting the trails, we will outfit you.
 Many new and exciting brands and activities  have emerged in the outdoor industry in the past few years including the barefoot/minimalist revolution, with products from Merrell, New Balance, Inov8 and Vibram FiveFingers.  Stand-up paddle boards, long boards and organic bouldering pads open the door and encourage participation in the latest sport and fitness crazes. 
    
Partnering with brands like TOMS Shoes, and participating in and giving back to the community has remained on the forefront of Mountain High Outfitter's vision.  Social responsibility is more important than ever and this will help our community grow and become a better place to live, work and play.  I personally invite you to visit any one of our shops in Birmingham at The Summit ,Galleria, and  Cahaba Village or our shop in Huntsville at Bridge Street Town Centre and online at  www.mountainhighoutfitters.com
for what we strive to give our customers..."The Mountain High Experience"
